Description:

How can schools best use the resources they already have?

Exploring the link between purposeful resource allocation and academic achievement, Karen Hawley Miles and Stephen Frank demonstrate how educational leaders can develop successful and strategic schools by assessing how well they use all available resources-people, time, and money - and by creating effective alternatives to meet goals.
